Kitsch Corner
Forget those old tin containers. Pull out the crayons and glue, and let young philanthropists put their personal stamp on artful tzedakah boxes.
The Creative Judaica Kit Company’s do-it-yourself set comes with a blank cardboard money box, colorful stickers, a giving goal sheet, decorating tips and activity suggestions for kids to enhance their tikkun olam experience.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
